President Trump spent Easter weekend resurrecting relationships with two women he hasn't been seen with a lot lately — Melania and Tiffany Trump.

The night before attending a Sunday church service together, the trio had dinner on an outdoor patio at Mar-a-Lago, where their table was separated from those of other diners with a velvet rope, as though they were in a nightclub VIP section. That was made possible by prescreening wannabe diners.

"Everyone's name has to be submitted a week before — they vet everyone," said one visitor to the Palm Beach, Fla., resort. We're also told that Secret Service still lets Mar-a-Lago visitors greet Trump, but keepsakes were hard to come by Saturday.

"It used to be that you could take pictures of the President and selfies," says our spy. "Now the Secret Service has banned selfies with the President at Mar-a-Lago."

The President and First Lady Melania Trump hadn't been seen together much since a porn star and Playboy Playmate alleged 2006 affairs with The Donald last month — both of which his surrogates have denied. Our source says that at one point, Donald and Melania "held hands under the table."

In October, Trump, who tweets incessantly, made news by not tweeting birthday wishes to daughter Tiffany when she turned 24. He has also said he's proud of his youngest daughter "to a lesser extent" than her older siblings, who are involved in running his family's business. Donald and Tiffany, too, "were talking and laughing" during dinner, our insider said.

The Donald was also overheard asking the house band to play "Ave Maria."

Despite reports that the portly President was dieting to lose 10 to 15 pounds on the advice of physician Ronny Jackson — whom The Donald has since nominated to be secretary of Veterans Affairs — the Prez had chocolate cake and ice cream, we're told.

Also at the dinner were Toni Holt Kramer, founder of the Trumpettes fan club, philanthropist Jean Shafiroff and Ava Roosevelt, who was married to Franklin D. Roosevelt's late grandson William.

On Sunday, Donald, Melania and Tiffany attended Mass at Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, where security was so intense that it caused some churchgoers to "cross the bridge into West Palm Beach and go to Trinity," according to our mole.

Once inside the church, our spy counted three Secret Service agents sitting in the pew behind the President with "at least 20 more" manning metal detectors outside and checking bags. One source claims to have seen an armored vehicle in the bushes.

"Guess what the sermon was about?" our insider laughed. "Living in fear."

The Trumps traveled back to D.C. on Monday for the annual Easter Egg Roll.
